1. You cannot create your own pictogram. The Ministry and the ADEME have legislated on the «info-tri» sorting options and these are only the ones that you can find in the Guide and the pictograms files that can be downloaded on our website.
You are not allowed to put 2 pictograms in the «info-tri» sorting (whatever they are). You have the choice to put only 1 or all 3 together. So you cannot for example mix the t-shirt and linen pictograms.
In the elements to download on our site, recommended symbols are provided.
2. The «info-tri» sorting cannot be cut up. It must form a homogeneous block, regardless of which one you choose in the Guide.
Thus, you cannot put the Triman symbol on one side and the pictogram of the instructions or the URL address on the other side.
3. The standard color is black & white, which we recommend.
You are free to use colors. The important thing is to ensure the contrast between the symbols and the background, in order to ensure the good reading of the «info-tri» sorting.
Attention, the «info-tri» sorting must remain monochrome. It is forbidden to use several colors.
4. The «info-tri» sorting in its entirety (with the Triman symbol, the FR acronym and the URL address, etc.) must measure at least 2.7 cm in width. The dimension is 2.7 cm minimum, minimum or extended version of the «info-tri» sorting horizontal or vertical (vertical means that the 2.7cm minimum is in height of the shot).
The minimum height is 1 cm / 10 mm (in case of technical difficulty: 0.6 cm / 6 mm).
The «info-tri» sorting must not be distorted in any way, and therefore respect a height-width homothety. If you enlarge or reduce the «info-tri» sorting, the height as well as the width must grow/shrink de facto.
5. We do not recommend to put the "info-tri" sorting on the receipt for two reasons:
- The "info-tri" sorting sign must accompany the product.
- As of January 1st, 2023, sales receipt and vouchers will no longer be systematically printed.
6. The sticker can be affixed directly on the product, or on the textile label or on the packaging. The Decree n°2021-835 of June 29th, 2021 does not specify the support.
7. We advise against affixing the info-tri signage to products that are not listed under the EPR scheme, as its purpose is to guide products toward appropriate collection points. Applying it to non-eligible products could disrupt the waste stream.
